4211. Photography. The junglefowl in Singapore General Hospital

Chickens were created when red junglefowl were domesticated for human use around 8,000 years ago. 

The red junglefowl (Gallus gallus) is a tropical bird. Undomesticated junglefowl is a source of meat and eggs in some countries.  Distinguished by the white patch at its rump and white ear wattles.

 Good morning. A photo for you today. On 11 Aug 2022, I went to the SGH and NHC (National Heart Centre). Around 6 pm, this junglefowl was 10 feet from me. He saw my camera and did not run away, unlike the others I met outdoors. I focused on his eyes and took 19 photos of this angle. He posed for over a minute. Incredible as the others in Bishan Park and elsewhere wasted no time running off. Upright and alert. His dull-coloured hen was busy eating grass.

8 Nov 2022 sighting of the red junglefowl in Singapore General Hospital at 8.30 am. He was calling loudly for several occasions as he walked around the grounds opposite Block 4.

The red junglefowl in Singapore General Hospital on 7 Nov 2022 is seen calling several times at 8.30am. His call is strangled at the end, whereas a rooster's is longer and trails off. The junglefowl can fly unlike the chicken.

PHOTOGRAPHY. He did not bother to move away when I photographed him some 10 feet away. But out of over 10 shots, I got only one sharp one, which is accepted by shutterstock.com/g/toapayohvets
